(x) The differentiation of secx with respect to x is `secxtanx`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We will differentiate the given function using first priciple.
Here, `f(x) = secx`
`:. f'(x) = Lim_(h->0) (f(x+h) - f(x))/h`
`= Lim_(h->0) (sec(x+h) - secx)/h`
`= Lim_(h->0) (1/(cos(x+h)) - 1/cosx)/h`
`= Lim_(h->0) (cosx - cos(x+h))/(hcosxcos(x+h))`
`= Lim_(h->0) (-2sin((x+x+h)/2)sin((x-x-h)/2))/(hcosxcos(x+h))`
